Counselors
Some of your students have no doubt about going to college. They've been raised in a college-going environment from the day they were born. Their major may be undecided, but it's a given they'll earn an education. On the flip side, you probably have students who don't think they can go to school for numerous reasons, some on the fence about attending and even some who may be 100% against higher education. Understanding where your students are coming from can help you support them as they develop plans for the future.
UCanGo2 aims to help you create a college-going culture in your school by providing you with practical and easy to understand college planning information, which includes the right classes to take, ACT/SAT resources, career exploration, educational programs and paying for school.
We believe that no matter the circumstances, any student with the determination and drive can attend a university, college or technical school and be on a path to a great career.
Working with Parents?
Each family has unique questions and concerns about their child's education after high school.To help you make the most of your time with parents, we've developed tools to assist middle school and high school counselors as you help families make college dreams a reality.
